Get a Life, Chloe Brown is the first of The Brown Sisters series and it's an incredibly charming, yet steamy love story.
The chronic illness rep was eye opening to me. Chloe suffers from Fibromyalgia, a chronic disability that heavily impacts her day to day life. So much so she needs to take tons of medication. Some days are better than others, but she's become an expert in hiding her pain. Before she was even diagnosed, Chloe had shared that she was dismissed for YEARS by doctors not knowing what was wrong with her body and that broke my heart.

Red is so sweet and considerate. Whenever Chloe is around, he's attuned to everything about her - her feelings, the slightest change in her mannerisms, and her needs especially with her chronic pain. He truly sees her. On top of everything, Red is in complete awe of Chloe.

Talia expertly weaves humor into this romance that touches on heavy topics. The narrative was hilarious. The banter between Chloe and Red was very entertaining and their chemistry was off the charts.
If you're looking for a diverse and steamy read with positive representation on plus-size FMCs and chronic disabilities, then definitely check this out!
Thank you @bookish_den for introducing Talia Hibbert to me for the 12x12 challenge! ๐ซถ๐ผ
